There was like one gory kill in this movie, and even though there are dozens of gay sex scenes the only nudity in the whole movie is 2 pairs of boobs. If you have a hard on for gay movies you'll probably like this, but if you're looking for any kind of horror or exploitation those parts are severely lacking.

Were the "dozens" of gay sex scenes all done while fully clothed?

Perhaps the reviewer did not consider male nudity (if there was any) worth mentioning?

Re: 'Rediculous' Customer & Critic Reviews
When I read some of the impressions about this movie with regards to the life of a black family in L.A. (no crime, overly dramatic gang shootings in an attempt to sell the movie), I was intrigued. But after watching the movie, I wasn't expecting it to be so much in the opposite direction and be this tame. A lot of the movie felt like an episode of Full House. I had a hard time believing that this was a more "realistic" portrayal of a life of a black family. For example, there is no profanity whatsoever in the movie. Not that I wanted every other word to be the F, S, or N-word, but it's kind of hard to believe that profanity wasn't used whatsoever within a black family, even though it's a Christian one.

Re: 'Rediculous' Customer & Critic Reviews
I’m sensing a theme with their clientele, here’s a different user on a different film
A big thumbs down on Do the Right Thing...one of the most abhorrent films ever made for actually justifying and advocating for destruction and violence in the name of racial "harmony" ... so long as Blacks are the ones doing it, of course, 'cuz that's what Blacks are supposed to do. Right, Lee? Somehow in Lee's mind, this is how Blacks are supposed to react when frustrated. This alone gives them license to destroy the very businesses and lives from which they all mutually benefit. Yeah...that's really "do(ing) the right thing."
Had this film been written and directed by anyone of any other race, it would have been deservedly condemned as virulently racist and insulting. Instead...because it's Lee...it's praised and applauded.

I didn't know Eliyzabeth Yanne Strong-Anderson had gone into the film review business.
But if anyone wants anymore warnings about WICA CATHOLIC INTEGRATING MAMON*, here you go.
*(had to look this up, it means oral sex?)
Of course Hillbilly Blitzkrieg is now at the top of my watchlist

The poster appears to believe that the Catholic Church is the Whore of Babylon mentioned in the Book of Revelations and it's somehow connected to...everything. This "review" of Buffy the Vampire Slayer sure is something.

Re: 'Rediculous' Customer & Critic Reviews
this review popped up on my letterboxd feed this morning, and now I actually WANT to listen to the commentary.
And actually, the bluray has a director's roundtable of various marvel directors that is actually pretty decent, the other extras are typical studio gee whiz stuff, but that one is quite interesting and fun as they talk about their respective involvements as the series evolves.
What a downside bummer, talking about characters!I’m a sucker for audio commentaries but, surprisingly, this one was kind of meh. Honestly, the whole INFINITY WAR Blu-Ray’s special features is pretty meh. I can’t believe I’m saying this, but only watch the commentary if you’re a die hard fan. They don’t reveal many interesting nuggets of behind-the-scenes info, just talk a lot about how they dealt with character motivations when making the movie.

Re: 'Rediculous' Customer & Critic Reviews
To be fair though, most of the MCU extras features are fluff pieces that don't explain much and/or are very short. In this regard, I regret the Phase One movies, that were regularly coming with half hour bonus about the technical stuff. And we're very far from the 85 minutes making of Iron Man 2.
Where is this one ? All I can see on blu-ray.com's details are multiple short featurettes, none of them ressembling what you describe.movielocke wrote: ↑Tue Apr 30, 2019 1:53 pmAnd actually, the bluray has a director's roundtable of various marvel directors that is actually pretty decent, the other extras are typical studio gee whiz stuff, but that one is quite interesting and fun as they talk about their respective involvements as the series evolves.

I actually watched* the extras on Movies Anywhere (it's so much easier and faster than wading through all the damn menus and adverts!), rather than my bluray, and I just logged in to check and it's highlighted as the "featured Extra" after the commentary. and is called "The Directors' Roundtable"tenia wrote: ↑Tue Apr 30, 2019 6:18 pmTo be fair though, most of the MCU extras features are fluff pieces that don't explain much and/or are very short.

*most all english language extras I watch these days are done while doing the dishes or cleaning up the kitchen with bluetooth headphones on, so "watched" is one way of putting it.

Re: 'Rediculous' Customer & Critic Reviews
Well, this review of The Reckless Moment really sucks.
And "they have a black servant"—he refers to her as no more than one of the family's possessions and status markers. She does has a name, Sybil, and far from being just "a black servant," the film allows her to become one of the crucial characters of the film—intelligent and fully human, not Mammy stereotyped, and one of the most crucial to the film's thematic developments than any comparable servant portrayal of any other Hollywood films of the era.
The arrogant and dismissive stance toward the film for its crime of being from the 1940s—back projection and the Hays Code, oh the horror!—betrays a laziness and lack of interest with respect to what makes the film so rich and what it does offer within the necessary constraints of its era, not to mention how the film implicitly investigates and critiques the postwar American family-home ideal.
Yeah, why didn't a film from seventy years ago focus on women working on "motor cars" even though the story has nothing to do with that? What about all the agency that Joan Bennett's character does possess throughout?They have a black servant, extensive gardens and boathouses projecting an upper middle class opulence, meaning these characters are insulated and oblivious. Post war undertones and era specific gender dynamics obviously go some way to dating this film immensely. Women were homemakers, men worked on motor cars, while girls remained porcelain like and engaged in more feminine activities.

Re: 'Rediculous' Customer & Critic Reviews
This sentence also doesn't make sense:
How would "good production" (or a "smattering of location work" for that matter) imply ineffectiveness?Good production, a smattering of location work and standard back projection means this film never quite gets off the ground

Yes, and then right after that one, the reviewer's parting shot repeats his point that
The source was a novel, of course—The Blank Wall, by Elisabeth Sanxay Holding, whose works are still read today, long after her death, and The Blank Wall in particular has been included in the prestigious Library of America series, sharing a volume with the likes of In a Lonely Place and Laura.
He has a "sense" that this nonexistent short story was one of the main causes of the film's purported low quality, even though he hasn't read it and doesn't know anything about it.Having source material taken from a magazine short story probably did it no favours either.
